- Prizma Pres Matbaacılık Yayıncılık Sanayi ve Ticaret A.Ş. is a Turkey-based company engaged in commercial printing, educational publishing, packaging production, and the trading of graphic arts machinery and supplies. The company operates through three primary business divisions: Printing and Packaging, Publishing, and Commercial Trading. Its core products and services include offset commercial printing services; publication of primary, secondary, and high school textbooks, supplementary educational materials, exam preparation books, and question banks; production of children's literature, fiction, and cultural publications; commercial packaging and box manufacturing; post-press finishing, binding, folding, and lamination services; wholesale and distribution of printing consumables, including paper, graphic films, printing inks, printing chemicals, and prepress offset plates; and the import, distribution, and servicing of industrial printing machinery and printing equipment.
The company serves publishing houses, private and public educational institutions, corporate enterprises, and industrial packaging clients across Turkey and select export markets. Founded in 1978 and formally incorporated under its current corporate identity in 1998, Prizma Pres Matbaacılık Yayıncılık Sanayi ve Ticaret A.Ş. is headquartered in Arnavutköy, Istanbul, where it maintains its primary production and warehousing facilities in the Atatürk Organized Industrial Zone. The company is listed on Borsa Istanbul under the ticker symbol PRZMA.
In recent corporate developments, Prizma Pres underwent a significant change in controlling ownership and corporate governance in mid-2026, when DLT Turizm ve Ticaret A.Ş., an affiliate of Tera Yatırım, acquired a controlling 29.9% stake (23.18 million shares) from founding shareholders Metin Kuru and Raşit Kuru, triggering a mandatory tender offer process under Capital Markets Board regulations. Following the ownership change, the company reconstituted its board of directors and executive leadership, appointing Emre Tezmen as Chairman of the Board. In August 2026, the company completed a major asset disposition by selling its hotel and logistics facility in Silivri to Tandem Yayıncılık for 370 million Turkish liras to streamline its asset base and focus on core printing operations. Additionally, the company cancelled a previously planned 75 million Turkish lira private placement capital increase and withdrew its regulatory application to realign its capitalization and financing strategy under the new ownership structure.
